    If you put an EL inlet manifold on the old girl it will improve the response and low end torque, it is a simple upgrade modification

    • @BrowneysGarage

      I’m interested to actually put that to the test one day. Will be a shame though cause I do much prefer the look of the earlier manifold it has now.

      I have done the EL BBM upgrade it makes it easier to get the dizzy in & out I’ve found..

    I can remember changing the fuel pump on my mum's EBII and it was a pain in the ass. Even a direct replacement fuel pump needed some slight mods to install as it was not identical to OEM. I still have the car and love it. I drove it today and still goes hard for an old car. Select the T-bar switch from eco to power and she goes! Awesome work and nice ED!

    Great to see progress on the old girl, Browney! I had to change the pump in my wagon and that was a mission, as it’s mounted in the side and spills fuel everywhere (even when empty as possible).

      Would rather do the EB again any day, even if it meant having buckets of fuel around making me dizzy 😂

    Do E falcons have strange fuel tanks? Or is the strainer filter going to not pick fuel up because its 100mm off the bottom due to being 45deg

    • @BrowneysGarage
      @BrowneysGarage  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It does seem a bit of an odd way to mount the pump, believe the filter does reach the bottom of the tank though. The bottom corner of the pump I'm fairly sure ends up near the bottom of the tank and filter wraps just below that.
